Click a feature in the image below to view the relative costs of design alternates for that design feature.
This tool, based on the results of a 2010 survey of concrete paving contractors, allows you to estimate the relative cost of a single design feature or estimate and compare the relative cost of a combination of several design features simultaneously. When viewing results from this Relative Cost Analyzer, it is important to remember that the results represent initial construction cost only. As such, the “value” of a given design feature needs to be assessed based on the initial construction cost, the impact on pavement performance, and its life cycle cost over the evaluation period. It also is important to note that the relative costs reported by this tool represent “national” costs for generalized conditions and are intended only to provide relative comparisons. Thus, the reported relative costs should not be used as actual construction costs nor as representing local bid conditions.
